"Dr. Parr stands in a pulpit, preaching, immediately under the sounding-board which is against the upper edge of the design. In his left hand is a pipe from which rises a cloud of smoke inscribed 'Exit in Fumo'; in his right hand is a pipe-stopper. From his mouth descends a billowing cloud of smoke inscribed 'Ex Fumo non dare Lucem'. Below him are the heads of men asleep, or yawning, or disgusted. In the lower right corner a woman puts up an umbrella as protection from the smoke, a man angrily inspects his watch. From a gallery heads, with the lank hair of zealots, look down with angry dismay. In the corner of a pew is the City Sword and mace, indicating the presence of the Lord Mayor."--British Museum online catalogue
